Because timing is everything, I decided to set up the string lighting on our newly completed patio RIGHT when the season changed from Summer to Fall. Now it has become too cold to eat outside. Fist pump.

Not to mention the project took longer than expected to complete. Day 1 – Unpackaged Lightbulbs for 3 hours. Day 2 – Arms too sore. Day 3 – Start hammering in nails to hang lighting. See Spider. Run Away. Day 4 – Buy Spider Spray and Kill. Day 5 – Resume hanging.

Well, the table is built and the lights are finally lit, so EVERYONE (almost) is invited over for a patio dinner (eventually).
